61-1072-10-00 Tappan Dishwasher - Instructions

I called an appliance store and they said to bring in the model number and a deposit and they would order it for us. Then, I decided to go to the Internet. I Googled Gibson Dishwahers and your page came up. I entered the requested information and ordered the gasket. In LESS THAN 24 HOURS it was delivered and in les than fifteen minutes, our son installed it. No more leaks! Thank you for the excellent service.

Just snapped the wheels on and attached the bracket to the existing part.

The new roller just snapped in place.

just slid the wheel on.

The gasket was easy to remove and easy to replace. Our story is interesting because upon calling SEARS to find the replacement part we were told they no longer make it because the dishwasher is too old (approx. 15 years). It works wonderfully so I was annoyed to think we'd have to buy a new one just because of a bad gasket. My husband has a knack for finding things online and eventually discovered your site as well as the original drawing of the machine to find the part number and lo a behold, it fits perfectly. No more leaks! Sweet

Removed 2 screws from the Access Panel and 2 screws from the Toe Plate using a Phillips head screwdriver. The broken spring was removed and replaced using the opposite spring as a guide as to the position of the spring. The opposite side (the unabroken one) was replaced. The panels were screwed back into place. End of repair.

I clipped the wheels onto the rack. It couldn't be any easier. then i removed the # 25 torx screw which attached the broken slide wheel to the tub and installed the new wheel with the same torx screw.

At first remove the lower rack to give more room for you to lean over the inside of the dishwasher then remove the old gasket tub 90 inches long make sure that you know which side goes where, so that it will be easy to put the new one. Then press the gasket firmly on the side.Now you can start your dishwasher with no leak and saves you a lot of money for buying a new one.

First, open the dishwasher door and unscrew it from countertop or side of the cabinet. Second, close the dishwasher door and lock it. Thrid, pull entire washer out slowly. Fourth, remove old door spring on both side and replace with new one using needle nose plier. Fifth, unscrew drain hose from under washer and under the sink disposal and replace with new one. Sixth, run washer and ck for leak then push it back under the counter top...done

Removed the old rollers with with screw driver. Used the original screws and washers, and reinstalled the new rollers. Had been having trouble with top dish rack metal slides popping out of the old rollers. I not that the replacement rollers are slightly larger and have slightly deeper groves for the slides. Have not had the new rollers installed long enough to see if they remedied the problem. Will know in a few weeks time. So far, so good.

The repair was simple. When the part comes, you may need a hairdryer to heat up the plastic a bit to get any kinks that may have happened during packaging or shipping, very easy 5 minutes. Removed the old gasket by hand, very easy, 1 minute. You will need to clean out the track that the gasket sits in. Mine had years of black gunk inside of it. You will need qtips or a small screwdriver with some tissues or papertowels, easy but took 15 minutes to clean out properly. Installed new gasket in the track, start at the top middle, there is a notch on the gasket so you know where the middle is. Installed by hand, just push bottom edge into the clean track, easy 5 minutes. Ran the dishwasher with no leaks. Very pleased with the result and how easy the gasket was to remove and install.

Just pushed it onto the rod that held the old one

Removed bottom cover , PLACED TAPE ON SHARP EDGES OF ALL METAL!!!!!!! Pulled electrical connections off with long reach pliers , removed old split nut ,it was loose !!!!!! . Placed new nut into deep socket , started by hand until sung ,then attached small short 1/4 ratchet to socket and took two (2) turns . Reattached wires with long pliers, Tested on short cycle and nooooo,leaks !!!!!!!! SAVED HUNDREDS OF $$$$$$$. Replaced lower cover .ITS NOT ROCKET SCIENCES. GET AFTER IT !!!!! Bill.

All you have to do power down the unit, then disconnect the power connections at the element and remove the old nuts and replace them with the new ones and tighten. Don't tighten too much, the element has a rubber seal that just needs the nut to snug it up.

Never worked on a dishwasher before but quickly learned that on this particular one, it's only this thin little brass nut that tightens down the element from the underside of the washer. If not tight enough, water drips right down onto the electrical connections. In this case water began to drip and the heat from the electrical current began melting a clear rubber shield thing. Luckily I was home during the cycle and figured out the problem. Great website that seems to have all necessary parts for my washer. Quick shipment!
